HB 768 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Modifies provisions for renewable energy resources

HB 768 creates a state tax credit for homeowners installing solar energy systems, allowing them to deduct 30% to 40% of their qualified solar expenses (based on the tax year) from their state income tax starting in 2026. It also establishes new requirements for Missouri's electric utilities, mandating that they generate or purchase increasing shares of renewable energy - starting at 15% by 2025 and rising to 100% by 2059 - with at least 2% coming from solar. The bill includes provisions for tracking renewable energy credits (RECs), sets penalties for utilities failing to meet targets, and specifies that the program will automatically expire in 2031 unless reauthorized by the legislature. These changes directly affect residential solar customers and electric utilities operating in Missouri.
